# apk-tools
Alpine Package Keeper (apk) is a package manager originally built for Alpine Linux,
but now used by several other distributions as well.
## Building
The preferred build system for building apk-tools is Meson:
```
# meson setup build --prefix=/
# meson compile -C build
# meson install -C build
```
While there is a legacy Makefile-based system available, it only works for musl-linux
targets, and will be dropped in the apk-tools 3.0 release.
## Documentation
Online documentation is available in the [doc/](doc/) directory in the form of man pages.
The [apk(8)](doc/apk.8.scd) man page provides a basic overview of the package management
system.
